I checked in here, but the place was filthy. There was a ton of dust everywhere, the bathroom was gross (hair clippings on sink, grimy tub and toilet) and there’s a big dark mark on the ceiling, looking like the remnants of a fire. The “kitchenette” is nothing more than a sink and a cupboard. There is a saucepan but no stove and no fridge.
I ended up canceling and having to find last minute lodging. Joy was great at communicating and offered to have housekeeping come clean the room (although the issue was far beyond that). She was also very understanding and seemed really nice.
However, at the end of the day, if you’re staying in this neighborhood, you’re far better off paying the same price for a hotel and enjoying the slew of amenities that comes with it.
